    Ok, I decided to take moocheex55's suggestion and do a 'final request' and clue treasure hunt. The guests (long last relatives) will all receive an envelope with a last request from their dearly departed rich uncle. If they fulfill his last request, they get the first clue in the search for his hidden money. Now I need to think up some last wishes to have them perform/do. This is what I've thought of so far....and it aint much lol The requests should be something that has to do with a funeral or family.

    Sing my favorite song __________ at my funeral
    Tell a funny story about something we did together at my funeral.
    Ask your cousin _________ for the money he still owes me.
    Share your favorite memory of me at my funeral.

    Any ideas out there??

    Give "somebody" a big kiss for him.

    Have a swig of *some nasty drink or weird shot* in his memory.

    Put on his favorite hat and wear it for a few minutes - this would be funny if it was something like a propeller beanie or something...

    Compose a poem in his memory. (we have a Halloween haiku as one of our tempt your fate punishments - they don't have to rhyme and they are 3 sentences of 5 syllables, then 7, then 5 again)

    Impersonate his most favorite person in the whole world - his poodle, FooFoo (or something similar)

    well, I'm awfully glad that idea is working for you...I'd suggest going through the Tempt Your Fate thread here and see if any of those "actions" would work for you.

    IMHO, I'd make them all pretty unpleasant...he was a nasty old codger, that uncle! LOL

    You know there are cultures in which they drink/eat the ashes of their passed loves. Maybe you can make some kind of drink...milky white or something with "ashes" inside? To put in a punch bowl or something.

    Just a suggestion since you ARE doing a funeral theme.

    Oh...oops...I forgot that you were having a body. Sorry. Maybe next time.

    Yes I agree, very nasty. I had a teacher that actually did this. He agreed it was nasty as well.
